John Harvey RIP
Speedcafe reporting that John Harvey passed away last night.
Thoughts are with John’s family at this time. A stellar career from speedcars, open wheelers, sports cars to touring cars. |

Such a nice guy. The record books don't tell the full story of his contribution to motorsport. RIP.

And the GM Sunraycer solar car...
Helped build and ran the day to day operation of HDT road cars, and helped build the very same thing for TWR’s HSV operation. Underrated driver in touring cars, mostly with Mr Brock’s castoffs.. The dreaded C claims another one |

Very sad, condolences to John's family.
I read the Speedcafe article about Alan Moffat's recalling the VL Commodore that they ran together in Europe in Group A and was saddened to hear he is suffering from dementia and is in residential aged care. |

I was at a car club meeting that JH brought his speedway car too before he had a CAMS license and he got nothing out of it apart from showing and explaining the car to us. In those days CAMS refused anyone running speedway a CAMS license and anyone who had a CAMS license expulsion if they went speedway racing. The fact that he got no reward out of what was a small nothing event to him always impressed me hugely.
